An Ode An ode to silence The end of this life that I damn Every dawning day is the same as the last Every road is but a dismal pathway to void Phlegmatic, I shall forever expand these walls of apathy I shall forever shield myself of cursed passion Water fills the languid catacombs of my creation Rain pours down from the skies in an endless stream of grief Grief for what should have been, but never was Lament for the loss of innocence The tranquillity of my limbo cannot ward that which most I shun Inescapable, within my sanctum shall I drown Smiling, content with the irony of my fall, I yearn for silence No joy, no sorrow... Nothing No future, no past... To be free at last (xianguo upload)
